For all my grandfather Murdoch Macdonald's interest in things Scottish and stories of the family in Skye and Nova Scotia he never wore a kilt that I knew. For all his interests in tartans he never wore the tartan other than a tam, a scarf, and a bathrobe.

For all the highland games I was taken to as a boy and that I went to as an adult I never even thought about buying or wearing a kilt.

Five years ago I'm at the Arizona Ren Faire and saw a Utilikilt's Workman and had a love at first sight urge to get me one. Bought one, loved it, and the kilt addiction took deep.
